Great Vintage Amps-which one for you?



Hi, I'm 21 and I do have a passion for vintage amplifiers. There gems that are built like tanks with excellent components and the sound to die for. Too bad they don't make like this anymore. My favorite ones are most all vintage Pioneer, Nikko Alpha and NA Series (I have a Nikko NA-690 Integrated Amplifier), and Sansui AU Series. Anybody here have the passion for vintage gear?

I regret selling my Berning EA-230 tube amp. It made my LS3/5a speakers sing!
I have a soft spot for vintage it's the only spot in my system where vintage takes it's position. I regularly switch between my Marantz 8b (put together as neat as a button), Futterman H3; still lifts layers of haze compared to any real world transformer coupled amp, and a totally tricked out Citation II.

One of my fondest memories was of a ARC D79 driving Beveridges about 30yrs ago..I don't think I've ever heard anything as good since...AJ
I just bought a hafler dh-500 amp, and i was going to run it with a mcintosh ma5100 preamp. I was wondering what speakers would sound the best with this set up.I also was wondering where i could find a rack handle for this. When i bought it one was missing, any help would be apreciated thanks.
Dyna Mk. III mono tube amps with vinyl and a good tube preamp from the 70s-80s like Bruce Moore's Audible Illusions "Dual Mono".
That's for me,
